Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal receives strong positive reception from the r/fragrance community, praised for its beautiful, sophisticated sweetness and impressive performance. Multiple users describe it as gorgeous and expensive-smelling with notes of honey, dried apricots, and caramel. However, its intense sweetness makes it divisive—excellent for sweet fragrance lovers but potentially overwhelming for others, requiring consideration before blind buying.

Mugler Alien is a divisive fragrance with a passionate but divided fanbase. While dedicated fans praise its distinctive jasmine character and strong performance, a significant portion of the community finds it overhyped, with the Goddess flanker particularly criticized for having an unpleasant sunscreen-like quality. The fragrance's polarizing nature makes it a risky blind buy despite its iconic status.
